South Africa's fashion industry is blooming, and with the support of local communities to push the local artists work, we will get to a huge global market and be a fashion capital too. South African fashion is very artsy and original, there's a story behind each design and the passion is seen with the finishing of each garment. We stumbled upon Rural Love Creations , a local brand est.2009. They are  a fusion of the 80’s and modern times, they are inspired by the 80’s soccer legends, artists, brands and people who make a positive contribution in society or carry a unique history that interests them.

Often we wait for the rain to fall, to realize we need shelter, and waiting on things you have control over can be, somehow a little too late sometimes. We live not knowing what tomorrow has in store for, because you can simply go to sleep feeling good and wake up in the baddest of conditions. As people, we need encouragement at certain things, we need to team up to make things work, and also we need to learn from one another. Foschini went full on with 'Breast Cancer Awareness' this month and they invited their friends too. By making the 'circle' bigger, Foschini's aim was to show all women out there, that they are supportive way beyond fashion. A campaign ran by the fashion store and the Fashion Friends was implemented to broaden awareness and remind women that they need to put their health forward. The movement to love your boobies is encouraged by #ThinkPink #PledgePink on all social media. You don't have to be alone, ask a friend or a sister...

Before we get in too deep in this we would really like to thank all our readers for all the support we really appreciate the time you take to read our articles and hope they make a difference in you life's. Okay now enough with the draking, we here to talk about a clothing item that has been trending since the world wars better known as "The Bomber Jacket" or also known as the bombardier jacket or the MA-1 flight jacket. The jacket was originally made for pilots during the world war to keep them warm enough as the cockpits during that time were not properly enclosed. The US army established the Aviation Clothing Board and the distribution began from there on till the apparel evolved to symbols of honor, adventure and style and are now part of the pop culture. You'd be surprised how many different styles of the flight jacket there is ranging from the A-2 to the G-1 but today's flight jacket are mostly associated to the MA-1 the now obsolete  U.S Military jacket w...

Well, winter hasn't been that good for me here in Johannesburg, I have never experienced such dryness with my skin. So Cream tree sent through a package to test and tell, just in time. so I started using their products just as soon as I could, and I must say these came in handy. I have happier hair and good looking hands. My scalp has been super dry, like never before, so I started using the hair mist, combining it with the cream. I'd leave the mist on over night, then use the finishing cream in the morning, and I must say it has been working very well for my hair and scalp. I must also say, I am very picky with the products I use for my hair, but because of Cream Tree's natural ingredients in their products, it has been good for my hair. I hate having dry hands, mostly because I know that. I am one of those people that look at hands, when I first meet someone, so I like to take extra care of my hands. Cream Tree's 'cream stick, is the best if I say...
